Gramm Barrier Systems were successful in being awarded the A2 M2 noise barrier contract as they offered the only ‘catch construction’ Perspex noise barrier in the U.K. The unique polyamide threads contain any lose fragments following vehicle impact which was essential on a road bridge.

The project also required Resistance to wind pressure, Low Weight, Excellent resistance to weathering and aging, Recyclability and returnability to the manufacture.

Gramm Barriers took on the complete project from Design through to supply and installation working closely with the main contractors programme.

Our main challenge for this project was working at height over a live road and river crossing.
